New Telepathy Studies

5-Year-Old ‘Savant’ Being Studied
for Telepathic Abilities

A “telepathic”
little boy is being studied by scientists after his mom recorded him apparently
exercising his abilities.
The home videos recorded by Nyx Sanguino of her 5-year-old Ramses reached
scientists, and Dr. Diane Powell, formerly of Harvard Medical School, decided
to study the lad.

Powell
thinks telepathy might be an alternative method of communication between
autistic children and their parents.

“If you
think about it, if you have your primary language compromised then that would
be a perfect setup for telepathy—because here you have a child and a parent who
desperately want to communicate with one another but can’t,” she told Barcroft
TV.

“I have
found many autistic children who have been reported to be telepathic and I
wanted to see it for myself and see if it can be evaluated and actually tested
under rigorous, controlled conditions.”

Powell says
she’s seen signs of telepathy in at least seven different people, including in
three meetings with Ramses.

“I am as
confident that telepathy exists as I am a lot of things that have actually been
accepted by science,” she said. “It’s very risky to one’s credibility to
take on a subject like this—but I knew that when I got into it.”

In the
meetings, Powell used a random-number generator to pick numbers for the mom to
write down and think about. Ramses then attempted to read her mind to guess
them, and he was often successful.

“I was
amazed when we began testing Ramses. We do have a very close bond which may
have something to do with his abilities—but this is beyond anything I would
have imagined,” Nyx said.

“I don’t
know how to explain it and I hope that Dr. Powell will eventually be able to
give me some answers.”

Study
links two human brains for question-and-answer experiment

Imagine a
question-and-answer game played by two people who are not in the same place and
not talking to each other.
Round after round, one player asks a series of questions and accurately guesses
the object the other is thinking about. Sci-fi? Mind-reading superpowers? Not
quite.

University
of Washington researchers recently used a direct brain-to-brain connection to
enable pairs of participants to play a question-and-answer game by transmitting
signals from one brain to the other over the Internet. The experiment, detailed
today in PLOS ONE, is thought to be the first to show that two brains
can be directly linked to allow one person to accurately guess what's on
another person's mind.

"This
is the most complex brain-to-brain experiment, I think, that's been done to
date in humans," said lead author Andrea Stocco, an assistant professor of
psychology and a researcher at UW's Institute for Learning & Brain
Sciences.

"It
uses conscious experiences through signals that are experienced visually, and
it requires two people to collaborate," Stocco said.

Here's how
it works: The first participant, or "respondent," wears a cap
connected to an electroencephalography (EEG) machine that records electrical
brain activity. The respondent is shown an object (for example, a dog) on a
computer screen, and the second participant, or "inquirer," sees a
list of possible objects and associated questions. With the click of a mouse,
the inquirer sends a question and the respondent answers "yes" or
"no" by focusing on one of two flashing LED lights attached to the
monitor, which flash at different frequencies.

A
"no" or "yes" answer both send a signal to the inquirer via
the Internet and activate a magnetic coil positioned behind the inquirer's
head. But only a "yes" answer generates a response intense enough to
stimulate the visual cortex and cause the inquirer to see a flash of light
known as a "phosphene." The phosphene—which might look like a blob,
waves or a thin line—is created through a brief disruption in the visual field
and tells the inquirer the answer is yes. Through answers to these simple yes
or no questions, the inquirer identifies the correct item.

The experiment
was carried out in dark rooms in two UW labs located almost a mile apart and
involved five pairs of participants, who played 20 rounds of the
question-and-answer game. Each game had eight objects and three questions that
would solve the game if answered correctly. The sessions were a random mixture
of 10 real games and 10 control games that were structured the same way.

The
researchers took steps to ensure participants couldn't use clues other than
direct brain communication to complete the game. Inquirers wore earplugs so
they couldn't hear the different sounds produced by the varying stimulation
intensities of the "yes" and "no" responses. Since noise
travels through the skull bone, the researchers also changed the stimulation
intensities slightly from game to game and randomly used three different
intensities each for "yes" and "no" answers to further
reduce the chance that sound could provide clues.

The
researchers also repositioned the coil on the inquirer's head at the start of
each game, but for the control games, added a plastic spacer undetectable to
the participant that weakened the magnetic field enough to prevent the
generation of phosphenes. Inquirers were not told whether they had correctly
identified the items, and only the researcher on the respondent end knew
whether each game was real or a control round.

"We
took many steps to make sure that people were not cheating," Stocco said.

Participants
were able to guess the correct object in 72 percent of the real games, compared
with just 18 percent of the control rounds. Incorrect guesses in the real games
could be caused by several factors, the most likely being uncertainty about
whether a phosphene had appeared.

"They
have to interpret something they're seeing with their brains," said co-author
Chantel Prat, a faculty member at the Institute for Learning & Brain
Sciences and a UW associate professor of psychology. "It's not something
they've ever seen before."

Errors can
also result from respondents not knowing the answers to questions or focusing
on both answers, or by the brain signal transmission being interrupted by
hardware problems.

"While
the flashing lights are signals that we're putting into the brain, those parts
of the brain are doing a million other things at any given time too," Prat
said.

The
study builds on the UW team's initial experiment in 2013, when it was the first
to demonstrate a direct brain-to-brain connection between humans. Other
scientists have connected the brains of rats and monkeys, and transmitted brain
signals from a human to a rat, using electrodes inserted into animals' brains.
In the 2013 experiment, the UW team used noninvasive technology to send a
person's brain signals over the Internet to control the hand motions of another
person (Researcher

).

The first
experiment evolved out of research by co-author Rajesh Rao, a UW professor of
computer science and engineering, on brain-computer interfaces that enable
people to activate devices with their minds. In 2011, Rao began collaborating
with Stocco and Prat to determine how to link two human brains together.

In 2014, the
researchers received a $1 million grant from the W.M. Keck Foundation that
allowed them to broaden their experiments to decode more complex interactions
and brain processes. They are now exploring the possibility of "brain
tutoring," transferring signals directly from healthy brains to ones that
are developmentally impaired or impacted by external factors such as a stroke
or accident, or simply to transfer knowledge from teacher to pupil.

The team is
also working on transmitting brain states—for example, sending signals from an
alert person to a sleepy one, or from a focused student to one who has
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD.

"Imagine
having someone with ADHD and a neurotypical student," Prat said.
"When the non-ADHD student is paying attention, the ADHD student's brain
gets put into a state of greater attention automatically."

Many
technological advancements over the past century, from the telegraph to the
Internet, were created to facilitate communication between people. The UW
team's work takes a different approach, using technology to strip away the need
for such intermediaries.

"Evolution
has spent a colossal amount of time to find ways for us and other animals to
take information out of our brains and communicate it to other animals in the
forms of behavior, speech and so on," Stocco said. "But it requires a
translation. We can only communicate part of whatever our brain processes.

"What
we are doing is kind of reversing the process a step at a time by opening up
this box and taking signals from the brain and with minimal translation,
putting them back in another person's brain," he said.

How your psychic senses are connected to Earth's energy

by Julie
Wilson

Psychic researcher Pete A. Sanders Jr. knew
early on that psych ability was real, leading him to spend his education at MIT
studying brain science and biomedical chemistry, hoping to understand the
complex relationship between the brain, the mind and the nervous system.

MIT professor Dr. Jerome Letvin inspired Sanders when he opened a course about
nerve study stating: "I am not going to teach what we know about nerves.
Everything we know would take about two class sessions to tell you, and is
relatively boring. Instead I am going to talk about what we don't know about
nerves."

Dr. Letvin's approach changed Sander's outlook on life, spurring him to pursue
a career studying the brain's sensory abilities and their connection to ESP.
The following is an excerpt from Sanders' book entitled You are Psychic! in which he discusses the
relationship between Earth's energy patterns and our psychic abilities – which
he believes we all have.

Greater
awareness equals more security

"By learning to focus on the Psychic
Reception Areas you will receive stronger psychic impressions, strong enough to
divert your attention from your physical senses. With practice, even subtle
energy patterns will be discernible.

"Best of all, you will be able to develop your extrasensory abilities
safely and steadily. When you are able to turn them on at will you can also
turn them off to prevent the possibility of a psychic overload. Additionally,
you will have the increased security that greater awareness and skill always
bring.

"All our senses, physical and psychic, function in part by receiving and
responding to some form of energy.
Physical vision depends on the energy of light waves striking the eye. Physical
hearing senses the vibrational energy of sound waves.

"Taste and smell function through chemical energy reactions between
certain molecules and the receptor cells of the tongue and olfactory areas. The
psychic senses follow a similar pattern, except that the energies they interact
with cannot be discerned physically or measured by current technology."

Psychic
senses are invisible, but that doesn't mean they don't exist

"That should not deter you from
exploring your psychic
ability.
Many forms of energy affect your life whether you understand them or not. Two
hundred years ago little was understood about electricity, but electric energy
existed. Though scientifically unexplained, lightning struck, electric eels
gave shocks, the nervous system functioned. Even today, you may not fully
understand how electricity works although you use it routinely.

"Consider what happens when you turn on a light. You don't need to
understand how electrons travel back and forth in the wires. Neither do you
need to be aware that for each of your thoughts and movements the electrical
energy that is your brain
and nervous system has processed millions of messages.

"You don't need to know that each of those brain messages involves
billions of complex exchanges of chemical energy into electrical energy.
Instead, you have learned by experience how to make those forms of energy work
for you in practical ways even though you may not know how they work. You just
raise your hand, flip the switch, and the light goes on.

"You need to adopt the same approach to using your psychic senses. They
receive the psychic energy that is emitted by all people, places, and objects.
Because you are energy, you can receive and identify those extrasensory
vibrations.

"Much about the human brain is still unknown, and we use the word 'mind'
as a sort of shorthand to describe mental abilities that go beyond what we know
about the physical
wiring of the cortex. Brain scientists cannot yet explain exactly why or how we
dream, how memory is structured, or how we form a creative thought."

People, places and objects emit waves of
energy that may be picked up on by your psychic senses

"Yet
every day we dream, we remember, and we think. Or consider the mystery of
hypnosis. It has been studied and used successfully for over a century to
reduce or eliminate pain (it has even been used in surgery instead of
anesthesia), to help us control addictions, to uncover repressed memories, yet
we still don't have a precise idea as to how or why hypnosis works.

"The fact is that science today comprehends probably less than a tenth of
what our brain and mind can do. In a world where many scientists now believe
once unbelievable things, for instance, that all matter exists in ten
dimensions; that time slows as you travel faster; that particles called tachyons,
which can arrive at their destination before they leave their point of origin,
may indeed exist; that the universe is literally a sea of interchangeable and
interacting energy. In such a world, the concept of psychic sensitivity, of ESP, is no longer a farfetched
fantasy.

"Therefore it is not reasonable to resign yourself to waiting until some
researcher announces: 'We have now discovered exactly how extrasensory
perception operates. You now have permission to use your psychic senses.' Even
though science does not yet understand how psychic messages are processed, you
can experience and use them in your daily life."

I'll tell you what, we ALL have the ability to tune in and out of any given probability. Lean to SENSE by listening to self in the MOMENT, and you too can predict the next most probable reality. I do it all the time... REALLY listen and sense. That means tuning out the past and centering in on the channel that informs us, the ENERGY FORCE that transcends meaning, don't judge, just be and do and watch as the magic of reality is called ahead of time... Intention is a huge part of any psychic phenomenon, expect to know the sequences of any given probability and BECOME the one who perceives ALL
